Rogers RO4350B: Application in high-frequency PCB design for medical equipment
With the advancement of medical technology, the accuracy and reliability of medical devices are required to be higher and higher. In these devices, high-frequency PCBs play a critical role, especially in medical imaging, monitoring and diagnostic equipment that needs to handle high-speed data and signal transmission.
Rogers RO4350B material properties:
Dielectric constant (Dk): 3.48 ± 0.05, providing precise control of signal transmission speed.
Loss Factor (Df): 0.0037 at 10GHz, ensuring low signal loss during transmission.
Low Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE): Helps maintain equipment stability and long-term reliability.
UL 94V-0 Fire Rating: Meets the stringent requirements for safety performance in medical equipment.
Applications in Medical Equipment
Imaging Equipment: Such as MRI and CT scanners, which need to process large amounts of data and high-speed signals.
Monitoring Equipment: Such as cardiac monitors and EEG machines, which require real-time and accurate transmission of vital sign data.
Diagnostic Equipment: Such as ultrasound equipment, which relies on high-frequency signal processing to produce clear images.
Therapeutic Equipment: E.g. surgical, radiological. Laser therapy equipment requires highly accurate operating procedures.
Design Challenges
Signal Integrity: When designing high-frequency PCB, it is important to ensure the integrity of the signal during transmission to avoid distortion and interference.
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC): Medical devices must not interfere with other equipment during operation and must be resistant to external electromagnetic interference.
Thermal Management: High-frequency operation may generate heat, and heat dissipation needs to be considered in the design to prevent the device from overheating.
Rogers RO4350B material is an ideal choice for high-frequency PCB design for medical devices due to its excellent electrical and mechanical properties. It not only meets the medical industry’s need for high performance and reliability, but also provides a cost-effective solution that helps drive the development and innovation of medical technology.
